I thought about it but they're all of a fixed minimum width which is like 10" more than I want. Plus I'd be worried about the forward and backward stability.

The whole fumehood itself is like 120 pounds. so it's not THAT heavy. I'd figure that the jack would be able to overcome any problems and unstick itself without completely fucking the legs up. but i'm not supremely confident, which is why i'm asking.

yeah i'd prefer to be able to push the thing into my shed for storage when i'm not using it because it is an inconveniently large thing.
i could just make the whole worktop lower but i'd have to be seated the whole time to work at it or be hunched over, which sucks.
removing the fumehood is not a trivial task. it's not that it's really heavy, as much as it's unwieldy. you need at least two people to move it around.
i mean it's really close. bathroom counters are like 30", and the whole hood is 48" tall. so i'd have exactly 2" of freedom on the top. but i have to ramp it up into my shed to get over the door threshold and i don't feel like it's that much margin.
if i had to take the whole top off to put it away, it would never ever move, which means that this big ass thing would live in my garage taking up space forever. which is kind of the reason why i want to build a table for it anyway, so it's on longer taking up space in my garage all the time.
